6. Sharing and Transfer of Data
The personal data you submit via the pre-registration form is sent directly and securely to Google for organization and management purposes.
- Data Processor: Google, Inc., acting as our data processor
- International Transfer: As Google is a U.S.-based company, your data may be transferred to and stored in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). We ensure that any such transfer is protected by adequate safeguards, primarily through Google's commitment to Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure a level of protection equivalent to that offered within the EU.
We do not share your personal data with any other third parties for marketing purposes.
7. Data Retention
We will retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
